Holiday!!
Aug 23rd
We managed to take a holiday this week! Despite the super rainy weather it was great
On monday we took a “holiday at home” day. We went to the breathing space cafe at indooroopilly for breakfast then caught a train into south bank where we visited the science centre. From there, we had lunch at southbank and went for a play on the park before catching the train home again.

On tuesday morning we packed all our gear and decided to head up the cost (it was sunny then
)
Trying on the new swimming gear from daddy.
First stop: underwater world!
Next stop: the shearwater resort @ kings beach…. only by now it’s raining!! (these photos were taken from our balcony early wednesday morning)
but all was not lost – the kids enjoyed watching playschool
and we went on a bit of a shopping spree!…
…which resulted mainly in lots of great bargains (new clothes) for daddy – but some super cute nighties and socks for the girls too (amongst other things)
lots of fun!
we’re back home now and slowly getting ready for the weekend! Jer and I are heading away for our church couples retreat overnight tomorrow night. My dad will be having the kids for a little bit in the evening, then Adrian will be looking after the girls here and Julia is taking the brave step of looking after malachi for the night
Bella’s New Dress
Aug 10th
Flower Girl Practice Dress
Aug 9th
Brianna is going to be a flower girl in Erica and Joshua’s wedding next month so I made a trial of the pattern Erica picked for her – it’s super cute
(haven’t done the zip or the hem yet).
I’ve cut a purple one out for Bella too (can’t leave her without a new dress if Binna’s getting one
) – will finish it later today I hope! Still no new sewing machine, or contact from the seller
i’m hoping this isn’t my first bad ebay experience
